    I recently found this trunk while driving home. I couldn't believe anyone would want to throw such a beautiful and old trunk away! The inside is a bit dirty and was filled with mice poop, but I knew it could be cleaned up and make for an awesome piece in my home. I can't find any lables on the inside or outside. The only thing I could find is some letters and numbers on the bottom. I'm a huge history buff and would love to know much more about this trunk! If anyone has any information about this trunk please let me know. Thanks!

      Some know this as the pinwheel pattern of embossed tin.
